Breathe
When I close my eyes these days, I picture myself on the edge of a cliff-face. Theres a deep grey in the sky fading to white in the distance. A gust of wind rushes against my back and around me... enoguh to make me aware of where I am, but not enough to send me over.... I look down.
Two hundred feet below me is a chaotic scene, the sea rages in a strange mesmorising blend of emerald and sapphire smashing against the rocks below... the wind picks up again snapping me out of my hypnosis.
Looking around... all I see is foliage, brilliant shades of green, leaves... trees, bushes seem to take on a life of their own, in a world of their own ...
Aside from the crash of the waves below and the howl of the wind beside me.... there is nothing....
No insects..... no animals...... no birds
There is no-one
I look down again...... and take a step back..... for now
